Test setup says Rampage 3 Gene for the motherboard but as far as i can tell its Intel's own offering in the picture.
Also, it looks fudging awful.
Nope, this is correct. We built it up with a SmackOver X58 and it promptly died. Replaced it with the Rampage but used the original pics. The picture is just to show the build more than anything else.Quote:

it looks really really nasty! Who would buy an ugly thing like that?
Arrrrgggggghhhhh, my eye's!
So how is that a handle? it's got a 2.5" SATA holder in the middle preventing you from getting you fingers all the way round the dodgy looking plastic, you would have to be an extreme rock climber to get a grip on that with your finger tips!Quote:
As part of the three-holed handle at the top of the DF-85 there is a letterbox-shaped area featuring the DF-85’s party trick - a single 2.5in SSD-compatible hot-swap SATA drive-bay in a smoked-plastic cowling.
I didn't bother reading past that point. And yes, it's a terrible looking case.
Actually can the reviewer actually justify the 3 out of 5 star rating. You only have two positives about the case in the breakdown conclusion. You only have 2 negative too, but they are two giant negatives. This case should have got a 2 of out 5 and a complete slating.
